Signed for the parts to convert it to an NV4500. The only problem is that the yard that assured me they have 3 NV 4500s cant tell the difference between aluminum and iron. They only have nv3500s. So im on the hunt. I am in need of a nv4500 and bellhousing for a 5.2L.

Been shopping for an LED Light bar. I think I'm going to replace my two rectangle lights on my brush guard with one 25 inch LED Lightbar. Thoughts?

Today was my weekly fill up... 8 days actually.
What I can happily report is; I'm seeing a consistent 1mpg improvement since changing my CPS (Crank Position Sensor).
I'm getting 14.5-15.5mpg now... I'm more than happy with that, considering I was down to 10.5-11.5mpg at one time.

So I'm now going to be adding "change your CPS if it's over 100k" to my commentary.
Changing it has fixed a heap of annoying little things.

Well that is certainly interesting.

What brand CPS did you get?

Took the kids school shoe shopping, went to leave and the truck wouldn't start, battery cable didn't seem loose, moved it around a bit and she finally started up.

Getting time for new battery cables....

Killed a kitten with the truck today. Must have been hiding from the rain, started the truck and heard a god awful noise, knew exactly what it was.

Don't think it was the fan blade, it's neck was completely twisted around, looks like it got caught in the belt.

It pulled the belt off, had to remember how to put it back on.....
